I hope it means DJ Icepack is giving Melville's novel a spin. Or maybe one of the graphic novel adaptations of it? Either way, first time readers of the novel might dig my pal Cyrus Patell's annotations to every day of last year's Moby-Dick Big Read ahistoryofnewyork.com... or my own top 5 tips for first-time readers: www.greatwhatsit.com...

Can DJ Icepack talk a little about fencing during the next mic break? I know nothing about fencing.

well, my normal 30 minute commute became a 75 minute commute due the trains being held up due to a "police investigation". Wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't wearing long sleeves and a tie waiting on the platform for 40 minutes.

I did see Bad Manners about 20 years ago, they played with the Skatalites at Skalapalooza at the Ritz when it was at the Studio 54 location.

One of my fave ska shows was Special Beat, which was a combo of band members of The Specials and English Beat. So much fun! Saw The Specials a couple years ago in NYC. Terry looked tired and sat most of the time.

Last year I was introduced to something a little more complicated than fencing: sword-and-buckler fighting. Having a weapon and a shield makes more types of parries possible and varies the type of attacks the competitors use. They hold their bodies differently than one would for fencing or for boxing.

Yma was probably Incan the way Don Ho was Hawaiian - the culture is definitely represented, but there is also a lot of show-biz fun there.

I never knew this song had a title. I used to call it "wubba dubba dah" when I was a kid.

My husband and I have a game when it comes on:
"when you say wubba dubba dah, wubba dubba dah, then I say wubba dubba dah" and so on and so on.

Hi, I love the Moby Dick theme, great comments, thanks for those Moby Dick links. I read in a review of it once that it was most suited to someone who is dying or going through a grave crisis. I picked it up while I thought I might have a horrible disease (bit of a hypochondriac here) and then when I found I was okay I put it down. But it is there for me as it is for everyone, a meaty literary journey.
